About the tides at English Bay
English Bay has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. The mean range is small, about 1.7 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. That is smaller than most Alaska stations on this site. The next spring tides peak on Saturday, with a range of 3.8 ft. Neap tides follow on October 9, when the range shrinks to 1.4 ft.
English Bay is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Unalaska: highs come about 16 min later and lows about 1 min earlier than there. The nearest other station is Udamat Bay, 7 mi away, where high tide comes about 2 h 42 m earlier. For tidal currents, see Unalga Pass.
Predictions are based on Unalaska.
